Hey DevCloud Ninjas! 👋 Time for a fun Bash scripting challenge that'll help you level up your cloud skills! 🚀

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to create a Bash script called vm_info.sh that gives us some basic info about our virtual machine. Here's what I want you to do:

1. Create a script that does the following:

   • Prints a welcome message
   • Checks and displays the number of CPU cores
   • Shows the total amount of RAM
   • Displays the available disk space
   • Lists the top 3 processes using the most CPU

2. Use if-else statements to:

   • Check if the user running the script is root
   • If they are, print a warning message

3. Implement a simple while loop that:

   • Asks the user if they want to see current CPU usage
   • If yes, show the CPU usage every 5 seconds until the user presses Ctrl+C
   • If no, exit the script with a goodbye message

Here's a template to get you started:

#!/bin/bash

echo "Welcome to VM Info Script!"

# Your code here

echo "Script finished. Keep rocking, DevCloud Ninjas!"

Remember to make your script executable with chmod +x vm_info.sh before running it.

Bonus points if you can add error handling or make the output colorful! 🌈

Drop your scripts in the comments when you're done. Let's see what you've got, Ninjas! And remember, if you get stuck, our community is here to help. Happy scripting! 💻☁️
